[photocrazy8 10+ year member]

So I wanted to see how welding supply wire stacked up next to other brands...

From left to right....(WS= Welding Supply)

The measurements are the copper not the over all size...

Stinger HPM 1/0 AWG (3/8ths Inch), JL Audio 1/0 AWG (7/16ths Inch), Stinger Pro 1/0 AWG (5/16ths Inch), WS 1/0 (5/16ths Inch), WS 2/0 (7/16ths Inch), WS 3/0 (1/2 Inch), WS 4/0 (9/16ths Inch)...

Stinger HPM 1/0 AWG---(6/16ths) (STRANDS~~~4284) ($4.25 a foot)

I wish you had some Kicker wire in there.

Oh well.

 

[thatkidbob 10+ year member]

it would be easier to compare if you converted all the #'s to 16ths...

Stinger HPM 1/0 AWG (6/16ths Inch), JL Audio 1/0 AWG (7/16ths Inch), Stinger Pro 1/0 AWG (5/16ths Inch), WS 1/0 (5/16ths Inch), WS 2/0 (7/16ths Inch), WS 3/0 (8/16 Inch), WS 4/0 (9/16ths Inch)...

 

For a second i was about to be PISSED cuz i've got stinger HPM lol... that was before i did the conversion in my head...
